Study summary

This study aims to identify novel inflammatory biomarkers in AC, whether in circulating blood, in situ or as imaging biomarkers to better understand the pathophysiology of the disease and then to determine contribution to the clinical management of patients.

Read the detailed description

The treatment of AC remains based on palliative measures aimed at treating the consequences of the disease: antiarrhythmic treatments, defibrillator, treatments for heart failure. The identification of new biomarkers, in particular circulating ones, would make it possible to open pathophysiology avenues which, in the long term, could lead to therapies targeted to autoimmunity or inflammation.

Many scientific and medical questions remain unanswered and require precise databases on the diagnostic and prognostic evaluation of this pathology.

The objective of this study is to identify novel inflammatory biomarkers in patients with AC by studying the autoimmunity, inflammatory, and immunological profiles through blood samples and myocardial biopsies.

  2. Patient with a probable or confirmed diagnosis of cardiomyopathy according to the diagnostic criteria of the international task force
  3. Patient carrying a pathogenic mutation responsible for cardiomyopathy
  4. Patient informed individually of the research

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients under curatorship/guardianship
  2. Pregnant women
  3. Patients who expressed their opposition to participate in the study

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Measure the correlation between the autoimmunity, inflammatory, and immunological profiles through biomarkers found in blood samples, myocardial biopsies, mass imaging cytometry, and cardiac imaging in patients with Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy (AC)

    Time frame: 10 years

Secondary outcomes

  1. Measure the correlation between circulating biomarkers and the severity of the phenotype determined by the severity of AC and multi-modality imaging

    Time frame: 10 years

  2. Measure the correlation between imaging biomarkers and electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters (presence of repolarization and depolarization abnormalities)

    Time frame: 10 years

  3. Measure the changes in inflammatory biomarkers in serum and cardiac imaging over time

    Time frame: 10 years

  4. Demonstrate a correlation between circulating and imaging biomarkers and the link between the extent of fibro-adipose infiltrates and the ventricular strain

    Time frame: 10 years

  5. Measure the correlation between circulating and imaging biomarker values and electro-anatomical mapping data

    Time frame: 10 years

  6. Screening for cardiotropic virus in pericardial fluid and circulating blood sampled in routine care during epicardial ablation by PCR

    Time frame: 10 years

  7. Measure the correlation between the presence of a pathogenic or common genetic variant and serum/imaging biomarkers.

    Time frame: 10 years

Individual participant data

Plan to share: Yes — Data are available upon reasonable request. The procedures carried out with the French data privacy authority (CNIL, Commission Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertés) do not provide for the transmission of the database, nor do the information and consent documents signed by the patients. Consultation by the editorial board or interested researchers of individual participant data that underlie the results reported in the article after deidentification may nevertheless be considered, subject to prior determination of the terms and conditions of such consultation and in respect for compliance with the applicable regulations.
